Feel free to actually do this with your friends or family. It's incredibly entertaining.
This is a tongue twister play! You have to read this as fast and as clearly as possible! Don't mess up, or you have to start the line (or the play, if you dare) over!
Characters:
Narrator - the narrator
The Barbados family:
Baby Barbara - the baby

(Bobby sits on a couch next to Betty, who is holding Baby Barbara. The narrator stands upstage.)
Narrator: Here plays the scene of Baby Barbara Barbados, born of Betty and Bobby Barbados, as she barely blabbers her first basic bon mot.
Betty: Behold, Bobby, as Baby Barbara Barbados becomes unbashful and bears bearings of brightest bronze!
Bobby: I beseech you, Betty Barbados, does Baby Barbara's bearing behold the brightest sun?
Betty: By all means, be not a bitter bard, Bobby, as Baby Barbara brings her best blabber to blast us beyond yonder!
Bobby: She speaks?
Baby Barbara: B... buh...
Betty: Blabber, Baby Barbara, bring us both many bunches of banana bread!
Bobby: What?
Betty: It starts with B! Now, beyond breakable barriers lies your language, Baby Barbara Barbados!
Baby Barbara: Buh...
Bobby: Break the unbearable quietness, Baby Barbados, by the name Barbara you bear!
Baby Barbara: Buh... buh...
Betty: Bubble? Bathtub? Burnable buffalo wings? Blabber, Baby Barbara, blabber!
Baby Barbara: Buh...
Bobby: What will she say?
Baby Barbara: Bring me beyond bearing bashful bushes of boredom before bystanders blabber my name, Baby Barbara Barbados, born of Betty and Bobby Barbados, fair bling, you say I'm as bright as blistering blunders! Behold, Baby Barbara Barbados blabbers indeed!!
Betty and Bobby: (both gasp) Behold, our Baby Barbara Barbados!!
Narrator: Which brought blessings before Betty, Bobby, and Baby Barbara Barbados, the blabbiest baby of them all!
